Top 10 First Foods for Your Primal Baby

When it comes to introducing solids, most parents are handed the same outdated advice: start with rice cereal and pureed fruits. But ancestral wisdom — and modern nutritional science — tells us there's a far better way.

Here are the top 10 first foods we recommend for babies starting at 6 months:

  1. Egg yolks from pasture-raised hens
  2. Liver (chicken or beef), gently cooked and pureed
  3. Bone broth — rich in collagen and minerals
  4. Avocado — healthy fats for brain development
  5. Wild-caught salmon — omega-3s for cognitive growth
  6. Grass-fed beef — iron and zinc in their most absorbable forms
  7. Raw butter — fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and K2
  8. Sweet potato — gentle carbohydrates with beta-carotene
  9. Fermented vegetables — probiotics for gut health
  10. Full-fat yogurt (raw if possible) — calcium and beneficial bacteria

These foods provide the dense nutrition that growing babies need, without the empty calories and allergens found in processed baby foods.
